Foster Care Ministry Informational Meeting
Wednesday, June 15 at 6:30pm at HMUMC
HMUMC and The United Methodist Children's Home (UMCH) envision a world where every child is raised in a loving, compassionate and nurturing home. 150 foster children a month in Georgia are sleeping in hotel rooms supervised by strangers (a contracted state employee to be specific). The UMCH turns away an average of 30 foster kids a week, all because there are not enough foster homes. Our HMUMC Foster Care Ministry is trying to help.

PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN! We Need
Volunteers
We have an immediate need for more volunteers in our special needs Sunday school classes at 9:30am and 11:00am. We are facing the possibility of having to cancel a class one Sunday a month. It would break our hearts if the families of our special needs kids would have to miss church. Please consider sharing a small amount of time with these folks, so that they can spend an hour in worship without worrying about their kiddo!
Email
[email protected]
to learn more about volunteering once a month or as a substitute.

Registration is open for completed 1st - 9th graders. WinShape Camp for Communities is the ultimate day camp experience. We combine sports, arts, recreation, Bible Study and worship into one incredible week, keeping them busy from 8am to 5pm each day. On top of that, your kids will be guided by some of the most fun and best trained summer staff in the entire country.
Visit www.hmumc.org/winshape to learn more, register for camp, volunteer or make a donation to our scholarship fund.
